You can use git filter-branch in --msg-filter mode. This is exactly what I am looking for. Good to know this git command.

If the history is already published, it's probably better to live with the typo than to try to fix it now. I am aware of that, it is my local branch, so no worry.

Usually I use`git rebase -i` and `git commit --amend`, but both of them are interactive, apparently I don't want to edit them one by one. :) Both can be scripted, though. I know I can change $EDITOR to something like `sed -e 's/foo/bar/'`, but this seems pretty ugly. Is there a clean way to do that? I don't see the ugliness. There is no requirement that $EDITOR is interactive.
